Phương and family was incredibly kind. The property is located down a quiet road and the rooms are large and clean. The food was amazing, huge portions! Don't forget to brush up on your uno skills to face UnoMaster Be!

Since we went on the Lan Ha Bay / Halong Bay Day Cruise, I wanted a place which was a little off the beach and in the interiors of Cat Ba. The property was exactly as advertised and was in a quiet, serene location with a backwater away from the commercialised aspects of the city (on the reclaimed beach front) while being situated about 2.5 km from the City Centre. There are only 3 rooms in the property, so it's not very crowded. What I really liked was the hospitality of our host, Phurong who was extremely proactive from the time we booked the hotel. She was the epitome of Vietnamese hospitality and the best host I have had in any homestay till date. She told us exactly where we needed to go, what we needed to avoid and put everything on my Google Maps (including over half a dozen restaurants). It is also better to book any rental bikes, bus tickets, cruise tickets through Phurong as it saves a lot of time and is at par with the market rates. The complimentary breakfast was amazing with a lot of exotic fruits on my plate. If I ever come to Cat Ba again, no matter what my budget is, I will book my stay at Cat Ba Corner. If you're still having second thoughts about this property, I say go for it. I have been where you are and am glad I decided to stay at Corner Cat Ba and wouldn't change a thing.

Phuong was an exceptional hostess who took care of all our activity and travel needs with loads of friendliness. Breakfast was a treat every time. We loved the quietness and tranquility of the location. Close to town but away from the hustle and bustle. It was very helpful being able to communicate in English with Phuong. Most highly recommended!!!

The best hosts we have met in Vietnam! Se welcoming, friendly and helpful. We are going to miss them and their cozy homestay. The room was super clean, the location was perfect and peaceful. After spending one night in a hotel in the town it was like we moved to paradise. Breakfast was homemade and delicious. They also helped us book tours and bus tickets. Can’t recommend enough!

We are a 50 year old couple making a tour in Vietnam. The house is situated in a Great location, walking distance from the busy center. (1.5km),the room is very big and clean, all comfort is available. You can chill in your seat outside while looking to the lake. Every day breakfast is made with good fresh fruits. But what strikes the most is the help and kindness of the hosting family. The last evening we could even join a family BBQ, with fresh fish, local vegetables, pork, ....it was the best we ate during our whole stay in Vietnam. You can rent a scooter for a very cheap price. Price quality is absolutely Great. I can only recommend you can enjoy the experience we joined....

The location is perfect, situated just outside of Cat Ba, a perfect retreat to relax after a long day exploring. We were given a very warm welcome, had nice talks and received many local tipps for tours and restaurants. Very recomendable!

We loved our stay at corner catba! A beautiful quiet place just outside of the hectic town. The owners are very sweet and caring. We rented a motorbike to see the island. If you have the change, also book a dinner! Really delicious! Thank you for everything!

Amazing place!!! We enjoyed our stay in Corner CatBa. The room is overviewed to an amazing lake, it's super quite there. The place is located not far from the city (~5 min by scooter), what makes this place quite and comfortable. Also you can rent a scooter there. The family owned this place is gorgeous: welcoming, always smiling and ready for help. Also they have 2 animals (cat and dog), also friendly and cute. The room was amazingly clean and cozy! There is a aroma lamp, what was unusual and good addition for a cozy evenings. WiFi works very good, without issues. Highly recommend you this place during your stay on Cat Ba.

Quiet and beautifully located Homestay with a lovely host. Super helpful and caring. We were able to check in much earlier due to our earlier arriving night bus. Cheap scooter rental available (I recommend to get one because of the location).
